Bet on Barcelona vs Atletico Madrid

Atleti to Extend Sensational Winning Streak

Barcelona are having a strong season under Hansi Flick, winning 17 of 24 league and cup matches. Blaugrana are top of the league on 38 points, ahead of Atleti on goal difference and a point above rivals Real Madrid.

Barca crashed to a shock home defeat last time out. Flick’s side were off colour against Leganes, and Sergio Gonzalez’s fourth-minute strike was enough to give the away side maximum points.

Diego Simeone’s men are on a stunning run of form right now, winning 11 in a row in all competitions. They have suffered just one defeat in La Liga all season and look a good bet to reach the knockout phase of the UEFA Champions League.

A 12^th win in a row on Saturday will lift them above Barcelona and put them top of La Liga for Christmas. Can Simeone’s side upset the leaders in Catalonia?

Recent Barcelona vs Atletico Madrid Head-to-Head Meetings

Barcelona’s recent record in this fixture has been superb. They have won the last five meetings, keeping clean sheets in four. Atleti’s last goal against Barca was Luis Suarez’s consolation strike in a 4-2 loss in February 2022.

Blaugrana ran out 3-0 winners when the pair last met back in March. Joao Felix, Robert Lewandowski, and Fermin Lopez got the goals at the Metropolitano Stadium. Last season’s reverse match in Catalonia ended in a 1-0 home victory, with Felix on target.
